I'm currently reading through the thread, so I'm not up to date yet, but one thing annoys me enough to post.
And that is that Russ constantly insist that he is a "9 out of 10".
And when confronted about it not being true, he tries to justify it with "I'm 9 out of 10 for a disabled guy".
Now, the point scale of attractivness is bullshit in itself, since attractivness is subjective and all that crap, but even if you use it, like Russ do, this doesn't really makes sense.
He's basicly saying that "I may be a 1 out of 10, but among every 1 out of 10, I am a 9 out of 10". Or rather "I look good for an ugly guy". It makes the whole statement moot.
And it's not even his disgusting gremlin face that scares away everyone anyway.
